Bono

For the first time, the biggest rock star in the world tells his life story.

In these extraordinary, intimate conversations, Bono speaks candidly about his faith, family, commitment, influences, and passions. It is the closest we will come, for now, to a memoir from the iconic frontman of U2.

Review
Even non-fans will find inspiration in Bono's passion for living. (People) It's refreshing to read a discussion that allows for serious, no-B.S. answers and even entertaining digressions. Assayas's questions are thoughtful ones... (GQ) A musts-read for the U2 faithful or for anybody interested in the life of a modern, multitasking rabble-rouser. (Palm Beach Post)

Michka Assayas is a music journalist and novelist who lives and works in Paris. He met Bono in London in 1980, and was the first writer to champion U2 outside Ireland and the United Kingdom. He and Bono have spent the last three years putting this book together in Dublin, Paris, and Bologna, and on the French Riviera.
